Volunteers Revive the Botanical Garden After Attack
10 September 2025
Volunteers are diligently clearing debris and saving surviving plants at the Botanical Garden of Odesa National University named after I.I. Mechnikov after a recent drone attack. The incident on the night of September 7 damaged the greenhouses and rare plants in the garden. Local residents responding to the call from the garden's director are cleaning up glass, removing trash, and rescuing plants that can still be replanted.
Through joint efforts, water supply to the greenhouses has been restored.
The work continues. Anyone wishing to help with the cleanup is welcome to come this week from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Additionally, you can join the community cleanup on September 13 at 10:00 AM at the address: French Boulevard, 48/50.
